Safari boots opinions

That is tough. You cant get old fashioned 1800s boot anymore. Courtney's are great. But you can try wildebeeste boots from South Africa.
Can anyone tell me where you can get good, comfortable, and functional old-fashioned safari boots? Like the ones used in Africa in the 1800s.
 
Here is a selection to peruse.....

 
I use Russel Stalkers, they are a short boot with a Crepe sole, very quite for spot and stalk. You will spend a lot of time in dry riverbeds with sand and rock. The Russels don't offer a lot of support, I'm 220# and they work for me. Any light hiker should work well but be careful of hard soles, you might end up in your socks for the final approach.

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?
